Hell, I kinda wish the Coming Summer 1990 tag was still in there. But it's a very minor complaint, and not even a complaint really. To this day, no DVD set I have is more treasured than those BTTF discs. The transfers look gorgeous. They are the closest you can come to watching them in the theatres because they're the exact same movies on a different format. They went to painstaking trouble to remove previous home video elements that were added later, like the To Be Continued... and even the redub of Doc's "You made it!" line, things I was completely ignorant of, and if they had left them there, I would have been none the wiser. But they care about their product. They cared so much that Universal distributed free replacement discs when the fans realized and complained about misframing. By contrast, the Star Wars discs have problems, and it's immediately "a creative decision." I think it would be wonderful if, somehow, we managed to get the backlash against these DVDs so great and so widespread that it somehow crushed Lucasfilm as a company, and they were swallowed by a huge corporate entity. It would be just what he deserves. Obviously, it's a pipe dream, but I can dream, can't I?
